Pioneer HU Bezel/Dash kit issue

I'm using the Scosche kit with my AVH-4000NEX and I do not perceive any unnecessary gap. I mean, sure there is a very small open edge all the way around...but without that some face-plates would not be able to tilt. I certainly don't think either kit is "great" but having bought both the Scosche is definitely much better.

Well, if I put the Scosche exactly in the center, then it is ok with a fair amount of space around the faceplate of the HU. If it is offset, then you can see through to the other side of the bezel. That by itself is not that big of a deal and maybe I just got a particularly bad one. I can see irregular blotchy coloring in the finish and hairline cracks in multiple places. The shape of the Scosche is definitely better IMO then the Metra I have. Considering ordering another Scosche, maybe from a different supplier. The factory double din is just a ridiculous amount of money! Thanks for the pic, btw. Yours, looks great and I would be happy with that.

Might be a good idea to swap out yours, the coloration on mine seems very good overall and there are no cracks. The only real issue I had was two of the rear screw holes were not threaded at all on mine, easy fixes for each and got everything setup nicely.
